It's not hard to speak your primary language. No need for "ebonics" to declare your individuality.

I had to right a short essay for english that was about teen violence and one part of the essay was written in ebonics, it was phrased similar to this: Yo dawg wen dem hatahs go roun spittin raps bout yo mama dat hurt yo rep son den you wanna busta cap in dey ass

I never did hand that assignment in... oh well.

People can talk however they want. If it's the easiest way for them to get what they're saying across to people, then let them do it.
